Mark Few, the top dog on the Gonzaga coaching staff, grew up and play basketball in Creswell, Oregon.
"Even watching Gonzaga today you can still see some of the stuff that he learned here," said David Nickelson, interim athletic director at Creswell High School, "and is still using it." (SBG)

CRESWELL, Ore. - Imagine what could have been but for a single bucket Saturday night.

"You know I think it would be great for West Coast basketball for a West coast team to get the Championship back to the West Coast," said Gonzaga's Nigel Williams-Goss, who grew up in Happy Valley, Ore. "I had said before the tournament, that if for whatever reason we didn't win I would like to see Oregon win it. But obviously they lost a close one ... so now it's on us."
